# IRL Dashboard documentation

This documentation describes the deployed IRL Dashboard release for a GL.iNet Mudi 7 and its StreamHelpers Premium Chat companion service.

## Guides

- [Chat operations](CHAT-OPERATIONS.md) - pairing Premium Chat, operating the host Chat page, and using the message queue.
- [Overlay reference](OVERLAY-REFERENCE.md) - configuring and adding Chat and Featured Messages browser sources.
- [Architecture and security](ARCHITECTURE-AND-SECURITY.md) - router, hosted service, credential boundaries, and protected files.
- [Deployment and recovery](DEPLOYMENT-AND-RECOVERY.md) - release locations, deployment procedure, backup, validation, and rollback.
- [Release history](RELEASE-HISTORY.md) - the current feature set and important implementation decisions.

## Start here

Install or update the dashboard from the router:

```sh
wget -qO- https://streamhelpers.com/irl-dashboard/install.sh | sh
```

The dashboard is available at `http://ROUTER-IP/streaming/`. Set a dashboard login before using it on a shared network, and keep the router dashboard on a private LAN or VPN.

## Documentation scope

The public documentation covers operational behavior, not private credentials. Provider credentials, router passwords, dashboard overlay tokens, and StreamHelpers service configuration must never be recorded in a public file or browser-source URL.
